Coastal Humidity + Hurricane Season
League City’s Gulf Coast location means humidity-driven AC demand from March through November. Homes using 1,000 kWh in mild weather can reach 1,600–2,000 kWh in peak summer. Hurricane season (June–November) can also spike wholesale electricity prices — a fixed rate shields you from both.
